I stood in the lobby of the Falcon Theater in Toluca Lake, and looked at Twitter while I waited for the rest of the guys to arrive. The walls were covered with posters from productions like CHiPs: The Musical and It's A Stevie Wonderful Life. Being in a theater during the day, when it's just a b...

This is crying out for a caption. I'll choose my favorite, and send something neat* to whoever writes it. Submissions open throughout the weekend, one per person, and can only be left as comments here (it's too difficult to track on Twitter or via e-mail). *definition of 'neat' will be at my s...

If ya' remember, this same situation happened to a messenger application called ICQ. And ICQ was a hit in the days and everybody was using it.
People were getting spammed so bad that they dropped it altogether. Which led to their demise.
I'm just saying if Twitter doesn't act now They'll be going, "Uh OH!"
:p

A few months ago, Twitter changed their @replies tab into something called @mentions. This had a significant impact on a lot of us who use Twitter, especially those of us with a large number of followers. Originally, I'd only see a message with @wilw in it if that's the way the message began. It...

My brother had one of the coolest cats in the world. We called him Freddy Snowpants, because he had furry fat hind legs that looked like he was wearing snowpants when he walked. One of my favorite things to do was stand behind him and make the "zip zip zip" noise, which always resulted in much m...

I think you'll crap your shorts when you watch this.

I've been watching these ever since you pointed them out way back.
Here's a new one featuring you.
PS: LOL @ Ending.

I was picking tomatoes in my back yard yesterday afternoon when the phone rang. Caller ID said it was my manager. I picked it up and said, "Mister Black! What's up?" "Seth Macfarlane wants to work with you tomorrow," he said. The next thing I knew, I was looking into the concerned faces of my w...

I hope this makes my fellow Gen Xers as happy as it made me. Damn kids today: When we saw this during October, it usually meant that something wonderful, like a It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown was about to start. When we saw it in December, it usually meant a Rankin/Bass special was ab...

Well, lets just hope you do such a great job that your character end up being a regular.
I've been noticing a lot of Child Actors making their way back to the TV Shows, and they're getting on the good ones too.
Still can't wait to see you in Heroes. :P

Hey, check it out! I found a tube that goes right into the studio, so I can ride the Internets while I'm between scenes! Today is the day I've been waiting for since I booked this job. Today is the day that I get to really tear into this character, and mainline the good stuff that keeps actors...

Last night, Anne and I took our friend out to dinner for his birthday. We invited Nolan to come with us, but he said it would be "boring grown-up talking" and even though he loved us, he'd rather hang out at home. Allow me to translate: "Wait, I can go with three lame adults to a restaurant, or ...

Atrios used to have this series of posts called "What Digby said." Digby and Atrios are two of my favorite political writers and thinkers (Glenn Greenwald, Josh Marshall, John Cole and Bob Somerby probably round out the starting infield on my all-star team, if you care about that sort of thing) ...

Last week, Harmonix sent out a pretty major software update for Rock Band. Most of the gaming blogs I've read have focused on how great the new online music store is, but have glossed over or completely ignored what I think is the real news in this update: Harmonix has address and fixed two issu...

Last night, Ryan and I played Rock Band for a couple of hours, taking turns playing guitar and drums. We're both sore today, and it was entirely worth it. The point isn't to play real instruments. The point is to pretend that you're in a rock band, and have fun while you do it. Our final...

So recording Family Guy yesterday ranks in the top five most awesome moments of my acting and geek lives. Seth MacFarlane directed my session, and when I met him, I said, "Okay, I'm not even going to try to pretend to keep it cool. I am a huge fan, and this is more exciting for me than I can qua...
